LXLF came about as a result of a year of jarring transitions and intense loneliness. There was a certain euphoric point of complete acceptance that I hit where I had this "Fine, f*ck it. This is how things are. I am going to get drunk at some random club and dance by myself to the same friggin Rihanna song night after night until 4 am" moment. Which, I dunno, maybe that's not a moment that most people experience, but that was most of 2011-2012 for me. That feeling of near rapturous loneliness, in a nutshell, is this record.
